A fire flickered merrily in the deep cave the fellowship had found on Caradhas. Actually it was more of a deep chasm, a crack in the rock, but it was a lot better then freezing to death out in the snow.
It was quite surprising that they had managed to get a fire going on the snowy mountain - but it was mostly due to the fact that Gandalf was seriously fed up of being cold.
Frodo sat just outside the cave writing in his small book. It was sort of a diary. Usually Frodo never kept a diary, but he had promised Bilbo that he would make accounts of their adventures.
Sam and Merry sat just inside the entrance of the small chasm, talking in low voices about how this part of their journey sucked. They were both miserable and hungry.
Gimli was also miserable, he sat at the back of the cave near the fire trying to melt the icicles that had attached themselves to his beard. It was quite a comical site and Boromir had to bite his lip to stop himself laughing whenever Gimli began tugging and swearing at his beard.
Aragorn, Legolas and Gandalf sat a little way off from Gimli discussing their next move. Aragorn thought that if they went any further they would all freeze to death, but Gandalf and Legolas thought they should continue - as they had already come this far.
Frodo shifted the diary on his knee, until it was easy to write on, then he began jotting down the tale that Gandalf had told them just before they began climbing Caradhas. Presently he became aware of being watched.
Pippin sat staring up at Frodo looking weary. He had been sitting there for at least 5 minutes without saying anything, and usually when Pippin was quiet it meant...
"I'm hungry!" He complained, standing up and brushing the snow off of himself. Frodo merely glanced at him then went back to writing.
"Hello? Earth to Frodo? I'm hungry!" Whined Pippin.
"See if Merry has some food." Replied Frodo, without glancing up.
Pippin frowned and stayed where he was. "But I'm asking you Frodo!"
Frodo sighed and put his book down on his pack. "Fine, let's go find something."
They walked for about 20 minutes along a snow-ridden path. Frodo did feel sorry for Pippin, he could hear his stomach rumbling. They walked on until Pippin suddenly slid over.
He fell down a small slope and landed in a pile of snow at the bottom. Frodo yelled and began sliding down the slope after him. He had only got halfway down when Pippin's head appeared from the pile of snow. He was laughing, thank goodness!
It was then that Frodo noticed the pile of mushrooms growing a little way off.
"Look! Mushrooms!" He yelled, pointing towards the small patch. Pippin cheered and ran towards the large vegetables.
Frodo watched, smiling slightly as Pippin dug in to the small feast. Pippin chewed one for a while then looked up at him.
"Thish Tashtes diff'rent choo the muhshooms in the shiyre!" He mumbled with his mouth full. He swallowed the mushroom and tried again. "This tastes different to the mushrooms in the shire!"
"Let me try one..." Began Frodo, making his way over to Pippin. But a shout stopped him.
"Mr. Frodo!" Called Sam. Frodo looked up to see Sam and Merry peering over the side of the slope looking worried.
"What?" Asked Frodo, glancing at Pippin who had just came and stood next to him.
"Where have you been?" Asked Merry, sliding down the slope towards them. "Everyone's been worried!"
Pippin threw a well-aimed snow ball and it hit Merry on the nose. So Merry scooped up a huge pile of snow and began chasing Pippin with it. Frodo laughed as he watched his younger cousins shriek with laughter.
"Watch out for those mushrooms!" Exclaimed Sam suddenly to Frodo, as he noticed the small patch of mushrooms, which Pippin had obviously left.
Frodo glanced at the mushrooms then looked at Sam with worry written all across his face. "Why?" He asked.
"Don't eat them!" Instructed Sam, "Mr. Aragorn said not to eat anything on this mountain - Cause it'd most likely be poisonous!"
